Cats like to sleep under the covers on the bed. Many cat owners often share the same bed with cats. These are harmful ways of raising cats and unhygienic habits that should be completely changed. Because some cat diseases such as skin fungus, lice, toxoplasmosis, etc. are easily transmitted to humans, it is very necessary to train cats not to go to bed and drill the bed.

Cats should be trained to develop the habit of sleeping in their own special cat litter. Put a warm water bag in the nest. If the cat is still reluctant to sleep in the nest after taking these measures, a cover can be placed over the nest to prevent it from running out. After a few training sessions, the cat won't run out and certainly won't burrow under the covers.

If the cat has developed the habit of going to bed and drilling the quilt, the following methods can be used to correct it:

1. Direct punishment method: When the cat goes to bed or burrows into the owner's den , Immediately slap the cat's buttocks with your hands, or slap the cat with a newspaper roll or book, and reprimand it loudly to drive the cat out of bed. At this time, the master's attitude must be severe, showing a fierce and angry look. Since the cat is very sensitive to the owner's emotions, as long as the owner expresses anger, it will not dare to go to bed and drill the quilt. This way, the cat's bad bedtime habits can be corrected after repeated times.

2. Long-distance punishment method: Fill the pre-prepared bamboo water spray gun or children's toy water gun with water and use it for later use. When the cat wants to jump on the bed, the cat owner stands in a hidden place where the cat cannot see and sprays the cat with water immediately, and the cat will run away immediately after being attacked by a sudden water current. After attacking the cat with water several times in this way, the cat developed an aversive conditioning on the bed and stopped going to bed.

3. Electric shock method: charge the battery capacitor, place the electrode end where the cat often goes to bed, and the cat owner controls the switch of the battery capacitor. The cat owner first went to bed and pretended to be asleep, and when the cat was found in bed, he pressed the switch immediately. Because the shock can knock the cat down immediately; in general, a cat is aversive conditioned to the bed after receiving a shock, so that it won't go to bed again.
